Scotland 2005 Range Rover Supercharged 4.2 SC V8 Zambezi Silver
SUPERCHARGER 4.2 Pulley Upgrade Available

Hi all SC owners,

I am in discussions with a manufacturer of the stainless pulley for this simple upgrade for the car.

I am awaiting info on a bulk discount order price for 10 pulleys and would like to see who would be interested as this is the simplest upgrade with no MAP required to improve the SC pick-up. (not that its not quick!)

Please advise via PM if you would be interested, i will be doing a step by step write-up for the forum of this process with cost of any tooling etc needed to complete the job.

The manufacturer is also interested in levels of interest and is willing to offer long term discount for forums members.

they have advised for bulk orders more than 10+ a cost of approx £85 each postage approx £5



awaiting you to let me know if there is enough demand to execute this discussion

thanks Rob Thumbs Up :thumbsup:

Pulley

hello chaps

i had the pulley upgrade and a remap and it made NO DIFFERENCE AT ALL

and its NOT that simple as the old pulley needs to be cut off which leaves tell tale marks which may invalidate warranty

my mates SC still kept up with me all the way

honestly save your money i even did exhaust aswell

after conversion i thought it was much quicker but race a standard car before and after and you will see

dont want to be a spoil sport but i spent a fortune for no gain

If it was that simple to get a BHP increase Land Rover would have done it. Don't forget the supercharger was designed to run at a certain speed to be efficient & the faster it turns the faster it wears out. It could also cause problems for the cooling of the supercharger. The air box has also been designed to flow the right amount of air & any more could ruin the flow. As above to even try to get more power without altering the fuel air mix and exhaust etc is pointless. Range Rover 4.4 V8 Vogue

This mod is known for all M112 blowers, as carried out on all Jaguars etc, regularly, so if you research it first you will find it allows a better torque delivery at lower rev range, which is where we need it most, the upper range, the blower bypasses anyway as the pressure valve is opened at this range anyway.

thanks for looking though Current vehicles

Thanks Highfellzippy

Useful info there highfell and sorry to hear that all the expense of the mods you had done made little difference.

I am still undecided whether to get an SC or the 3.6 tdv8, but the SC mods would have been on the todo list if I do decide on that model.

Cheers 03 4.4 V8 petrol / lpg. 1st of many hopefully. I love my Rangie

Checked with my insurer and they are being bell-ends about premiums so I'm out unfortunately. I'll probably have both pulleys and the intercoolers done when my insurance renews and I got with a specialist. Then off to Pete Bell for a remap, wow I love living in Yorkshire!

I have uploaded the fitting guide supplied from the manufacture in advance, I am not a believer in grinding / cutting, I would rather have a puller on the original pulley and apply controlled heat carefully to allow controlled removal with no effect on the blower shaft.

then repeat with cooling to protect the front seal with the heat of the expanded new pulley on fitting.

my personnel preference, each to there own.
